Valdir spent several weeks in intensive care, and during this time, the separation from Preta took a toll on both of them.
Valdir’s daughter shared that her father constantly spoke about the dog, while Preta became so distressed that she stopped eating.
Happy reunion
After several days in the hospital, doctors allowed Valdir to step outside for a few minutes to see his dog.
The emotional moment, captured on video, showed Valdir in tears as Preta eagerly climbed onto his lap, licking his face.
Strong bond
The touching reunion not only lifted Valdir’s spirits but seemed to contribute to his recovery. Just four days after the visit, his health improved enough for him to leave the intensive care unit.
This beautiful moment shows the strong bond owners have with their pets.
We hope that Valdir continues on his road to recovery.
